She's appearing on Oprah on April 14th, the day before the album is released.

Ugh.....

gotta hand it 2 the orca - US airplay, h/sh/ e/ it has it waxed. Somehow I don't think the dl's are going to sustain any longevity. It's a nice track but lacks a bit of everything.

Anotha diva who has survived the test of time - so give credit when it's due. :flirt:

I just read that she's going to be on American Idol, and a whole bunch of other shows. She's going to have a big opening.

I hope she doesn't do another Regis and Kelly or David Letterman :manson: . Totally humourless, worst presentors in the whole wide whurl.

She should go to some show like Graham Norton's.

Mimi will outsell Madge in the US. That's a foregone conclusion.

Madge will outsell her everywhere else.

Does it really matter anyway?

nobody really expects madonna to outsell mariah in america. but then, mariah has no chance in competing with madonna on an international level.

Mariah outselling Madonna in the US is technically the far more likely scenario but just remember that nothing is guaranteed in the music industry.

Besides, Ray Of Light scanned over 100,000 more copies than Butterfly and Music has scanned about as much as Rainbow despite the fact that GHV2 was released and destroyed its sales just a year later while Mariah's Greatest Hits wasn't released until 2 years after Rainbow.

And of course there's the issue of American Life, Madonna's flop, having scanned 35,000 more copies to date than Glitter, Mariah's flop, despite being released 2 years later with lower overall album sales.

And once again Confessions On A Dance Floor, Madonna's flop follow-up, has scanned roughly 515,000 more copies to date than Charmbracelet, Mariah's flop follow-up, despite being released later with lower overall album sales.

But that could all mean nothing and Mariah could scan 4 million this time while Madonna scans 5 copies. We'll have to wait and see.

Mariah may sell more albums in the US, but it won't be by as much this time. Everytime Mariah has had a big album like "TEOM" she's followed up with one that sold half as much.

"Mariah Carey" (9 million) then "Emotions" (4 million)
"Music Box" (10 million) then "Merry Christmas" (5 million)
"Daydream" (10 million) then "Butterfly (5 million)

Going by this "E=MC" should only sell about 3 million in the US.

I really hope Usher releases his video this week to keep his sales high.
